We never know when our words are going to make someone's life a little easier.

I often think that from "down here," life can often look like a messy bunch of jumbled up events, relationships, ideas, and non sensical stuff that have very little to do with one another.

I also very much believe that if we were able to look at all of this from way up above (or with some time distance), we would most of the time see how it really all makes beautiful sense. How one unpleasant event many years ago, turned out to be such a great gift. How a name that crossed our path "for no good reason," ended up changing our life.

The tapestry of our lives, if we could see it from up above, would most likely look like a perfectly harmonious mandala. Colors dancing with each other, symmetry, too.

Today, I want to share with you one of my Magical Previews. Something that seemingly came out of nowhere and which took over 20 years to fully simmer into a perfect soup (this was shot during a long beach walk, and you may have to pay close attention to hear me above the sound of the waves.)

I know these Magical Previews are all over your life, too. Sometimes, we just need to be patient...
